- Excellent variety of Specials with equally great utility.
- All of the Carbineer Specials have a useful purpose.
- TwoStates can be applied (KD and SNARE), which are very important, both in PvE and PvP.
- TwoCone Effect/Multi-Target attacks.
- Very strongin damage output.
- Awesome titles. Perhaps some of the best in the game.

- Damage types limited unless special quest/loot or certs from other professions are gained.
- Only one positional Crowd Control attack.
Where can I find information on all the Carbineer Specials?
Please consult the thread Carbineer Specials Info.
Which Carbines should I buy and use?
Carbines, and all weapons for that matter, have all changed to being certified for you Combat Level with a few exceptions like the E11 Mark II cert'd at Master Carbineer. This change dictates that a player use the highest CL weapon available. Some special situations warrant the use of a lesser weapon such as your target wearing a PSG, then you would want to use a Kinetic Damage Type Carbine to 'bypass' the PSG.
For more info on Carbines, see the Complete List of Carbines. You can also find typical Carbine Stats from this thread.

OK, now it is time for you folks to provide some CU info to fill in the blanks here ![]()
I need a WS and PvP expert ASAP.....and everybody's input is welcome as always ![]()
Heh, after publish 19 maybe I'll write up something in terms of PvP. I just ground out a second carbineer so I can get views from Carbineer/Healing and Carbineer/Ranged Stacking.
As TA before Im asking the support of the whole carbineer community to contribute to this FAQ.
As I am a big Fan of the Star Wars Wiki to collect information from multiple ppl on the net, Im working on the Carbineer FAQ in public right at the Wiki, where you can see the progress as well add your comments as well as your knowledge right away.
As soon as the Carbineer FAQ is in a suitabel stage, I will copy and paste and adjust the format for a sticky here in the carbineer forum.
I have roughly outlined the different sections for the FAQ but will incorporate larger parts of the old FAQ from TA (the complete Carbine collection to name one).
p.s.
Sylow, Im not 100% sure if I will keep your Recommended path to the carbineer, since I might look for a more brief roundup.

Congrats to _scout_ for the correspondent position and TA, you did a very good job while on the seat.
I'm very glad to see that the ball is rolling for the FAQ and top issues. I hope_scout_ gets our issues (the few we have) fixed. Also hoping it will be easier for new carbineers to find help and advice in the FAQ once it's complete.
If only a Corr had more than 0.05% control of the issues fixed....sadly about the only thing I saw get fixed as I pushed for was the Laser Carbine Cert and Suppression Fire, and Suppression Fire didn't end up quite as I envisioned but close.
